In the organic compound \(CH_2 = CH-CH_2-CH_2-C≡CH\), the pair of hydridised orbitals involved in the formation of \(C_2 – C_3\) bond is
\(sp-sp^2\)
\(sp-sp^3\)
\(sp^2-sp^3\)
\(sp^3-p^3\)
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
In the given organic compound, the carbon atoms numbered as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are sp,sp, sp3,sp3,sp2 , and sp2 hybridized respectively. Thus, the pair of hybridized orbitals involved in the formation of C2-C3 bond is sp-sp3 .

Concepts Used:
Organic Chemistry – Some Basic Principles and Techniques - Reaction Mechanism
SN1 Reaction Mechanism:
SN1 reaction mechanism takes place by following three steps –
- Formation of carbocation
- Attack of nucleophile
- Deprotonation
SN2 Reaction Mechanism:
The SN2 reaction mechanism involves the nucleophilic substitution reaction of the leaving group (which generally consists of halide groups or other electron-withdrawing groups) with a nucleophile in a given organic compound.
Electrophilic Aromatic Substitution Reaction Mechanism:
The mechanism of an electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction contains three main components which are:
- A new sigma bond from C=C is formed during the reaction in the arene nucleophile.
- Due to the breaking of the C-H sigma bond, a proton is removed.
- The C=C bond is reformed and it restores the aromaticity of the compound.
Electrophilic Substitution Reaction Mechanism:
The electrophilic substitution reaction mechanism is composed of three steps, which will be discussed more below.
- Electrophile Generation
- Carbocation Formation
- Proton Removal
